We were so close.

I am distracted by how amazingly attractive Spirits is.

» That's the whole point of showing her in the medical bay

I am also distracted by Spirit’s attractive looks, but I somehow only noticed it by the next chapter.

This is the good kind of fanservice ufffff

she does have rather nice arms, yes

Please don't bully russian girls by taking vodka away

Why did she bail on the kiss? It's the perfect time for some comforting love.

She's saving it for when she really means business. i.e. When she's sober.

that felt weird to see cause ever since the beginning i saw them like a mother-daughter bond thing

Hmmm I think mentor or sensei would be more appropriate ... Well I'm sure Spirit thinks that shy is a cute puppy at this point

Note that Teru wasn't against the kiss

Don't do that, don't give me hope

Seeing Spirits without her usual outfit somehow...bothers me

They are so cute together.

They are so cute together.

I think so too

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I also don't think that Spirits sees Shy as her peer, despite Shy's best efforts to prove her wrong and Spirits' apparent acknowledgement of her new strength (the handshake). Therefore, I don't think any good will come out of it if they got together at this point in the story. Maybe later, when Shy goes through fifteen shonen power-ups and saves the world single-handedly? Rn, Iko is still the best match for Teru IMO, because they are both about the same age, and I am still waiting on Iko getting some superpowers of her own.

PS: Does a handshake count as holding hands?

Ok Author, now you have me truly shipping them. I want my chu chu moments asap.

haahha Pesha almost going in for that kiss i so would have enjoyed it if it did happen! hmmm the plot thickens huehue im glad Pesha is okay i knew she would be okay also her best friend is back obviously for plot but i hope this means she becomes into a new super hero via the ring to help shy take down stigma it would be interesting to see StarDust turn evil via stigma i have a feeling he might turn bad because of him exploiting his emotions or memories

The Yurii Orphanage......... Very subtle...

Can i be the kill joy about the orphanage's name ? Just remember that Yurii has not the same meaning in Russia that it had in Japan.

NO RLY? But cheap pun is good for a chuckle.

If you're going to nitpick, at least say it's yurii, not yuri.

Also nobody is going to comment that it's implied that Pepesha always drinks before meeting Teru to the point, Teru wouldn't recognize her when she's sober?

My read is that this was done for the cheap pun, since, again, I cannot think of any original Russian name for "Yurii Orphanage" that would make linguistic sense. Yuri is a given name, and orphanages and other institutions named after people typically have surnames attached to them. E.g. an orphanage dedicated to Yuri Gagarin would be "the Gagarin Orphanage", but never just "Yuri Orphanage"...

Theory: Her regular sober personality is as grumpy as her orphanage days, but drinking makes her more sociable and open (a real-life side effect of moderate alcohol consumption), which is the side of her she wants to project for Teru.

I meant more, that nobody is going to think Russian "yuri" means the same thing as Japanese "yuri" and it's obviously here for a cheap pun. So if you're going to nitpick the obvious, the least you could point out is the fact that Japanese "yuri" is written as, well "yuri". Not "yurii". "Yurii" means nothing in Japanese. In fact the fact author wrote it as "yurii" and not "yuri" makes me think they didn't want people to draw a connection. Then again in that case they could literally choose any other name,

Oh. That actually... makes a lot of sense. I like it.

That Mr Isaak looked shady as hell.
